It's a Windows issue (I don't keep up with windows so perhaps this was changed in the past few years, but I suspect MS hasn't done so due to back compatibility issues).

Windows 7 was released in 2009. It's been more than a few years.

True, but even though you can set:

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation]
    "RealTimeIsUniversal"=dword:00000001

It isn't flawless in practice, unfortunately. Internet Time Update no longer works then.

Is it the default? If so, then that's kinda neat.
